Note that the FreeBSD buildbot that I was operating stopped working a
year or more ago because of this change. I eventually shut the VM
down since it could not work with a 0.8 master. (That VM was outdated
anyway; once this transition is made I could spin up a variety of VMs
with more modern FreeBSD releases on them.)
